The Vintage Press
216 N. Willis Street, Downtown Visalia

At The Vintage Press, you'll find a delicious and unique menu in a traditional ambience for lunch, dinner and cocktails, afternoon tea, and Sunday brunch.  May I recommend the very impressive oysters, and an exceptional wedge salad...it's got to be one of the best in the west.
Local secret: Each month, Chef David Vartanian demonstrates his famous lunch and dinner dishes at "Recipe Club" events. Guests enjoy a dynamic presentation, and a gourmet meal paired with fine wine.  One of my very favorite downtown events.
